Yes, raspberry syrup does go bad, but how quickly depends on how it's stored.
Storage and Shelf Life
Proper storage is key to extending the life of your raspberry syrup. Leaving it at room temperature significantly reduces its lifespan. Instead, always refrigerate it in a clean container.
- Refrigerator: Raspberry syrup will remain fresh for 1-2 weeks when refrigerated.
- Freezer: For longer storage, freeze your raspberry syrup. It can last for 3-6 months in the freezer.
Remember to always check for signs of spoilage before using your raspberry syrup, such as mold, off-odors, or changes in texture. If you notice anything unusual, discard it immediately.
